Thats awesome who’s birthday? Nice stellies is so awesome i love stellies have lots of friends from stellies. We all in different fiels some farming, some mining some building, some finances and medical. And you?

WHOOOOO lol. I’m excited. Nothing better than big expectations :p first night will be great.
I’m booked into a hotel (The Bird Cage Phuket) from the 25th to the 29th. Its in Patong.
Was thinking of heading to Bangkok but decided to just see what comes up.

Haha, no pressure for night number one ;o) I definitely think we can show it horns!

Much as I’d love to be staying on a bit in Asia, I’m going to be heading straight back to SA. My family all live down in Durban and will be inn Plett for Christmas so I’ll be joining them there a little belatedly…

Ha Ha wow now the pressure is mounting, but you girls will see that we will start off with a big night guaranteed.
Oh very nice plett is always good fun at the end of the year.
How much spending money are you girls looking at taking?

Oh indeed it is… I think our little team of 8 here will be showing the rest of the tour what it’s all about though ;o)

Plett is good – it’s very much my annual haunt which is why I’m at least spending some time doing something different and getting away from the Joburgers for a while!

Hmm, that is not something that I had yet thought about at all… Was kind of thinking I might just take it as it comes. Are you going to get some currency before going across? Not sure if THB will be available in SA – I went to Kenya earlier in the year and could only get USD ahead of the time as most banks don’t stock the riskier currencies…

Hi Guys, i’ll be on this tour too :) just need to confirm travel arrangements tomorrow so your doing vietnam for 10 days? thats a good tour but i recommend doing the vietnam experience 12 days includes extra day at hcmc, cu chi tunnels and mekong delta, are there any perthies going on this tour?

Explorer1297999 – wheres the rest of your crew? thought they would be part of this discussion by now :p

Darren87 — where you from? and welcome!!!! :D

I think I’ll bring close to a grand aus dollar, and exchange it all in thailand. Better exchange rate converting in thailand I found last time. I’m there for 2 weeks so better to have too much than too little. What are you thinking? If you have a strong dollar compared to the rest of the world, you will get a better rate in thailand. your aim is for 30tbh or over someone mentioned to me.
